Yes, Black individuals fought on both sides during the American Revolutionary War, which is sometimes referred to as the British War. The British offered freedom to enslaved people who joined their cause, leading many to enlist in their forces. Some Black soldiers also fought for the American Continental Army, motivated by the promise of freedom or to fight against British oppression. Their contributions were significant, though often overlooked in historical narratives.
